Abstract:

 This study explores university graduates’ readiness to integrate into the workplace by highlighting the complexity of the concept of workplace readiness at the organizational, institutional, and individual levels. The present research further stresses the need for graduates to develop not only their cognitive skills, but also a set of soft skills, business skills, and digital skills, among others. Nevertheless, graduates may encounter challenges, namely misalignment between university curricula and the demands of the job market, recruitment process and financial problems, and a lack of collaboration within the organization. To cultivate graduates’ workplace readiness, a strategic partnership among ministries is recommended to adapt job opportunities and existing and newly established organizations to the international industry changes. As for graduates and new employees, they should participate in training programs and internships to master their workplace readiness competencies. In addition, they should improve their autonomous learning and helpseeking skills, among other skills, for efficient organizational performance and productivity.
